Masai Mara safari
we went on a safari through a specialist from https://www.safaribookings.com, the specialist's name is Anthony, he helped us with transfer from the airport, choosing a hotel in Nairobi, as well as purchasing Nairobi-Mombasa-Nairobi tickets. and also with transfer from the railway station. due to the fact that Russian transfers to Kenya do not work, this is very serious support. the safari was very good, the driver Denise is very experienced. The team was cheerful!.. an agreement was signed regarding payment and we liked the price). thank you Anthony!

Nice experience
We have just finished a 10-day trip organised by Golden Rwanda Safaris. The experience has been very positive, from the first contacts with Frank, the owner, to the last day of the trip.
Before talking about the trip, I want to say that the communication with Frank before arriving in Rwanda has been very easy, reactive and fluid. Depending on new ideas for activities, we were discussing with Frank and adapting the trip planning. The payment in two installments was also an easy step. Later, during the trip, when we came up with new activities, such as visiting a coffee plantation, it was also possible to adapt it so that it could be done.
The trip, at all times with its guide Mico, took us to Kigali, Nyungwe, Lake Kivu, Volcanoes National Park and Akagera National Park. Mico was always very attentive to the development of the trip. Punctual and efficient. Adapting to what we were discussing during the trip. Having an experienced guide makes the choice of activities and recommendations (such as the gorilla group to see) positive. All the activities have been very good, but I recommend one that is less known: the hike to the Bisoke volcano. A wonderful landscape and a good workout.
The choice of accommodations throughout the trip is very successful. Quality, from accommodation in tents in Akagera to very premium hotels like in Lake Kivu.
In short, if you decide to organize your trip with Frank and his team, you will have a very good experience. Rwanda has been our eighth country in Africa.
Thank you Frank. Thank you Mico.

Wonderful guide and unbelievable experience!
For our honeymoon, we went on an 6 day experience with Golden Rwanda Safaris including a Gorilla Trek, a Golden Monkey trek, a Chimpanzee Trek, a Colobus Monkey trek and numerous other activities and it was FANTASTIC!
Eric was a wonderful guide! Super knowledgeable about the area, very professional and enjoyable to spend time with. He was always organized and right on time with a big smile on his face.
Our accommodations were great, much more luxurious than we were expecting for the price. The food was also delicious, particularly our stop at a local cafe on the way to a destination.
The real highlight, no surprise, was the gorillas. I ruptured my Achilles earlier in the year and Eric took special care to get us in an "Easy" hike, which was greatly appreciated. It is impossible to describe in words what spending an hour with the gorillas feels like, other than "unbelievable". We feel lucky beyond words.
Thank you Eric and Golden Rwanda Safaris!

One team, one dream — can fully recommend Zanzi’s
We had an amazing Kilimanjaro trek with Isack, Lazaro and team. We chose to do the 6-day Lemosho route which can be slightly tougher but the guides constantly had our success at the forefront of their mind, ensuring that we reached our goal. In fact on summit day they managed to support us to be the first group to reach Uhuru Peak!
The experience from the whole team was seamless - from fetching water, carrying our bags and setting up camp, and feeding us 3 tasty meals a day (plus snacks!!) and other tasks we didn’t even see - meant we could focus on simply walking and enjoying the beautiful scenery. Douglas our chef made a big effort to cater to one vegetarian in the group with a variety of meals across the 6 days which was truly appreciated.
The price for what you get is amazing, all the kit we were given and the items we hired (sleeping bags, mattresses) were of great quality meaning we always got a good night’s sleep. We can’t recommend Zanzi Trekking and Safaris enough!

Flexible, conforting, attentive, they made my experience unique. 100% recommendable.
I booked activities in Zanzibar, a 10 safari in Kenia and Tanzania and lemosho route hike to Kilimanjaro with Honest and zanzi trekking safari. They are based in Arusha, so the stronger points where in my opinion Safari and Kilimanjaro experienced which is managed by them directly. In Zanzibar and Kenia we had other agencies/people involved, this did not influence the experience is merely informative.
About Zanzibar, we got a guide assigned to us that accompanied us during the trip and welcomed us as we arrived to Zanzibar. We got a walk around stonetown and experienced other activities like blue safari, Nakupenda and Spice tour. I specially enjoyed spice tour. During the trip Honest was constantly in contact with us checking on us, this gave a feeling that I specially recommend anyone coming to this country for the first time.
We continued with Safari, we kicked it off from Arusha, where we first met Honest. My entirr experience in this country was unique and perfect thanks to his dedication, no buts, thank you honest and team. After we met him, we launched the safari were we got mixed with other people in a car as usual. The overall experience in the budget safari was very good, what refers to the agency I had a couple comments during pur trip like extra sleeping bags or itinerary changes that where handled on the spot, fantastic customer service.
Lastly, for the kilimanjaro trip, Honest came to greet us on the airport directly, again after a briefing of the trip we kicked it off with Justin. I can say that the kilimanjaro guide was very professional, Justin was a great spedition leader, very experienced and calm. At the end we had some extra costs that he took over as a commercial gesture, that we appreciated inmensely, again making our trip stress free and honoring Honest name.
Only good words, no buts.

This travel angency ruined our trip totally, don't choose it.
This is a very terrible travel agency
Took all our money, but did not perform the contract to pay for our hotel and park fees included in the contract, we had to pay extra by ourselves.
And we spend extra time to communicate with the travel agency hoping the problem can be solved, but now they can't get in touch. So we have to call the police to defend our rights.
It wastes us almost $6,000 per person and two days of Safari, ruining our trip totally. Don't choose it.
Plus, this company only has three full-time employees.Our guide also has not received his oil and labor fees, and will no longer cooperate with the travel agency in the future.
